The animal in front of them is a large cat, most likely a mountain lion (a related source refers to it as a panther) which is posed on the ground. There is also something off to the left, possibly another animal. The ground they are standing on appears to be bare and, in the background there is a house made of brick with a porch. To the left, there is a tree and a fence as well as some other indistinguishable objects behind the hunters. An accompanying note reads: "l to r - Gus Bogel, Graves Bogel, Sauceda ranch-house."
